Ciyin Jing Temple

Ciyin Jing Temple

Ciyin Jing Temple is a cultural tourism attraction.

Upon entering the Gushan Scenic Area, the first temple you encounter is Ciyin Jing Temple. It is the largest Jing Sect nunnery in the Gushan temples, featuring structures such as the Hall of Three Saints, the Mahavira Hall, the Scripture Depository, and the Chanting Hall. The walls of the Mahavira Hall are adorned with large, highly artistic gilded relief sculptures known as the “Nine Grades of Rebirth in the Western Pure Land”; the Scripture Depository even houses an extremely precious treasure—the “Qianlong Tripitaka.”
